Temperature Evolution of Sodium Nitrite Structure in a Restricted Geometry
The NaNO nanocomposite ferroelectric material in porous glass was
studied by neutron diffraction. For the first time the details of the crystal
structure including positions and anisotropic thermal parameters were
determined for the solid material, embedded in a porous matrix, in ferro- and
paraelectric phases. It is demonstrated that in the ferroelectric phase the
structure is consistent with bulk data but above transition temperature the
giant growth of amplitudes of thermal vibrations is observed, resulting in the
formation of a "premelted state". Such a conclusion is in a good agreement with
the results of dielectric measurements published earlier.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
